ABOUT THE PROJECT
The training course Hate Youth = Youth Hate will seek to build an understanding of how and where hate comes from and why young people are drawn to hate and hate groups. The activity will encourage the participants to examine and develop an understanding of haters and who they are – the everyday people in our communities. The participants will explore who are the targets of hate in their communities and develop strategies as youth workers for tackling and combating hate as a part of their youth work.
Objectives:
• To understand how and where hate comes from
• To explore how and why young people are drawn to hate
• To better understand who the haters are
• To explore who are the targets of hate in my community
• To develop a strategy as a youth worker for tackling and combating hate as a part of my youth work both among the young people and in the community as a whole
The project will use non-formal learning methodology including methods such as: ice breakers, energisers, name games, reflection groups, working into intercultural subgroups, facilitated discussion, creative presentations, simulation, case study, debates etc.
